Short summary
This study presents an adaptive observation-weighting scheme for thermodynamic profile retrievals from ground-based microwave radiometers and Mie–Raman lidars. The method dynamically estimates observational contributions during the retrieval process, replacing the commonly used static weighting assumption. Evaluation using 107 heavy-precipitation cases shows improved retrieval accuracy, particularly for atmospheric moisture profiles.
